[Spacewalk-list] Task Schedules not running automatically

Thu Feb 5 20:07:57 UTC 2015

Thanks Stephen for your email.  I don't see any issues when restarting
taskomatic and firewal is disabled on this server:

--
# grep -i disabled /etc/sysconfig/selinux | grep -v '#'
SELINUX=disabled
# chkconfig --list | grep -i iptab
iptables           0:off    1:off    2:off    3:off    4:off    5:off    6:off
--

taskomatic logs when restarting the service:

However, I do see the following in catalina.out which I am not sure
what it means:

--
# cat /var/log/tomcat6/catalina.out
[Fatal Error] :-1:-1: Premature end of file.
[Fatal Error] :-1:-1: Premature end of file.
[Fatal Error] :-1:-1: Premature end of file.
[Fatal Error] :-1:-1: Premature end of file.
[Fatal Error] :-1:-1: Premature end of file.
[Fatal Error] :-1:-1: Premature end of file.

Any thing else I should be checking for?

Thanks again for your help.
